Ring's AI Drone Cam Finally Lands in 2027 as Smart Home Camera Race Heats Up

Ring's $249.99 flying indoor camera arrives nearly six years after Always Home Cam, amid rising AI vision competition from Amazon, Apple and Google.

New CEO John Ternus is said to be championing the AI-driven HomeView Ultra, a roving FaceTime companion that could slip to 2028.

Six years after the $99 original, Apple's entry-level smart speaker returns with a new chip, two-tone finishes and a delayed AI payoff.

The 7-inch HomeView recognizes up to six family members, runs a generative-AI Siri, and takes direct aim at Google's Nest Hub and Amazon's Echo Show.

The $149 speaker arrives after nearly six years with an S10 chip and four-speaker surround support, but Apple's smarter Siri remains a promised update.
